After a few trials webdirect seems a massive improvement over IWP.

A few quirks but well worth a look.

 

What are the quirks that you are running into?  We haven't tested Webdirect yet, but have a number of IWP pages that we are considering transferring to WD.  I would like to know what other people's experiences are.

 

Thanks,

Browser inconsistencies, mostly (and as expected).  For example, IE does not display the 'connector' (the little triangle that connects the popup box to the button that called it) for pop-up boxes while Chrome and Safari do.

 

I think the biggest issue that I've seen with WebDirect so far has been random hangs/freezes/spinning while using a WebDirect website.  Granted it was ported from 12, so there may be some incompatibilities.

Hey James, check your IE version - WD only supports IE 9 and 10.  Is it a supported browser?

 

FileMaker WebDirect is accessible from a web browser. Supported web browsers include:

• Safari 6.x and Safari 7.x
• Internet Explorer 9.x or 10.x
• Chrome 21.x

Yes, it was IE 10.  It was a layout inconstancy, since the pop-up worked fine before I changed some of its styling.  It was odd that restoring the original theme to the pop-up didn't fix the issue.
